Miriam’s Advice Well
INSUFFERABLE GUEST MAKES
SHABBAT DINNER UNPLEASANT
A Shabbat dinner is unpleasant because of
one insufferable guest. An invitee wonders
that if she gets invited again is there a tactful
way to say not to invite the annoying person? Miriam responds
with a few possibilities, but notes that it’s difficult to make requests
about a guest list. For the finer points of the response, visit Miriam’s
Advice Well online. From dating to parenting, Miriam welcomes
all questions. Email yours to news@jewishexponent.com and put
“Advice Well Question” in the subject line.

Philacatessen TRUFFLE BUTTER PASTA
Truffle is a rarefied ingredient, so food columnist Keri White
always makes sure it’s the star of the show when she features it.
In this week’s Philacatessen blog, truffle butter pasta is on the
menu. White encourages anyone making the recipe to use
top-quality butter and Parmesan cheese, as well as the freshest
possible pasta and parsley to go with truffle paste, which can
be found in gourmet shops. Check Philacatessen regularly for
content not normally found in the printed edition, such as other
recipes, restaurant reviews and food news from around the
Delaware Valley.
